In 1936, Maykop and the surrounding region merged with [[Adyghe Autonomous Oblast]] and became the [[administrative centre]] of the autonomy. The [[Wehrmacht]] occupied Maykop on 10 August 1942 without a fight as a result of a [[Brandenburgers|Brandenburger]] [[commando]] operation. German attempts to re-start oil production in the scorched-earth area proved only minimally successful. On 29 January 1943, the [[Transcaucasian Front]] of the [[Red Army]] re-took the town.<ref>[https://www.soldat.ru/spravka/freedom/1-ssr-4.html Освобождение городов]</ref> |

History
[edit]The city gave its name to the early Bronze Age Maykop culture after the discovery of a royal burial site there in 1897.[11]
Following the establishment of a military camp in 1825,[12] the Imperial Russian Army built a military fort at Maykop in 1857.[13]
In 1910 oil deposits were discovered in the vicinity of Maykop.[14] The city was the administrative center of the Maykopsky Otdel of the Kuban Oblast.
In 1936, Maykop and the surrounding region merged with Adyghe Autonomous Oblast and became the administrative centre of the autonomy. The Wehrmacht occupied Maykop on 10 August 1942 without a fight as a result of a Brandenburger commando operation. German attempts to re-start oil production in the scorched-earth area proved only minimally successful. On 29 January 1943, the Transcaucasian Front of the Red Army re-took the town.[15]
Since 1991 Maykop has served as the capital of the Republic of Adygea in the Russian Federation.
Economy
[edit]The discovery of extensive underground oil reserves has made Maykop a major centre for oil extraction for the Soviet Union and, subsequently, Russia. Other economically important sectors are food processing and the timber industry.
Administrative and municipal status
[edit]Within the framework of administrative divisions, it is, together with eight rural localities, incorporated as Maykop Republican Urban Okrug—an administrative unit with the status equal to that of the districts.[1] It has the following rural localities under its jurisdiction:[16]
- khutor of Gaverdovsky
- stanitsa of Khanskaya
- khutor of Kosinov
- settlement of Podgorny
- settlement of Rodnikovy
- settlement of Severny
- khutor of Vesyoly
- settlement of Zapadny
As a municipal division, Maykop Republican Urban Okrug is incorporated as Maykop Urban Okrug.[5]
